Electronic Device with EMI Shield

1. An electronic device comprising: a panel; a circuit board comprising a copper foil electrically connected to earth contacts thereof; and an electromagnetic interference (EMI) shield electrically connected to the panel comprising a tab extending therefrom, and the tab elastically depending from and electrically connected to the copper foil of the circuit board, the EMI shield shielding the circuit board from EMI.

2. The electronic device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the EMI shield comprises a body mounted to the panel, the tab extends from the body.

3. The electronic device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the tab comprises an elastic arm extending slantingly from the body, and a contacting portion bent from a distal end of the arm, the contacting portion electrically contacts with the copper foil.

4. The electronic device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the panel defines an opening, and the body of the EMI shield covers the opening.

5. The electronic device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the body of the EMI shield defines a plurality of through holes for input/output ports.

6. The electronic device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein a plurality of mounting holes is defined in the panel, and a plurality of securing holes corresponding to the mounting holes is defined in the EMI shield.

7. An electronic device comprising: a panel of said electronic device extending along a side of said electronic device for partially enclosing said electronic device, an opening defined in said panel for access into said electronic device; a circuit assembly installable in said electronic device beside said opening of said panel so as to expose components mountable on said circuit assembly along an edge thereof through said opening, a ground means defined on said circuit assembly spaced from said edge thereof; and an electrically conductive shield installable between said opening of said panel and said edge of said circuit assembly so as to shield said circuit assembly from electromagnetic interference (EMI), said shield comprising at least one tab extendable toward said ground means of said circuit assembly and engagable with said ground means to establish a direct ground path between said panel and said circuit assembly through said shield.

8. The electronic device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein said at least one tab extends slantingly relative to said shield to reachably engage with said ground means.

9. The electronic device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein said ground means is a copper foil electrically connected to earth contacts of said circuit assembly.

10. The electronic device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said copper foil is spaced from an edge adjacent the panel of the circuit board.

11. The electronic device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein said shield comprises a body sized substantially same as said opening of said panel, said body defines a plurality of through holes for input/output ports of said circuit assembly.

12. The electronic device as claimed in claim 7 , wherein a plurality of mounting holes is defined in said panel, and a plurality of securing holes corresponding to said plurality of mounting holes is defined in said shield.

13. An electronic device comprising: a panel; a circuit board comprising a copper foil electrically connected to earth contacts thereof; and an electromagnetic interference (EMI) shield electrically connected to the panel comprising a tab extending therefrom, and the EMI shield electrically connected to the copper foil of the circuit board; wherein the EMI shield comprises a body mounted to the panel, the tab extends from the body, the panel defines an opening, and the body of the EMI shield covers the opening, the body of the EMI shield defines a plurality of through holes for input/output ports.
